There are about 8563 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Sweden. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
This study is being carried out to see if ZD4054 (Zibotentan) is effective in treating prostate cancer and spread of cancer to the bone, and if so, how it compares with placebo (sugar pill). The study will also provide further information on the safety of ZD4054 (Zibotentan).
The purpose of this study is to provide treatment for patients who have chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and to compare the use of rituximab added to fludarabine+cyclophosphamide (FC) with FC alone, to determine if rituximab lengthens the time a patient remains free of leukemia symptoms.
The purpose of this study is to provide treatment for patients who have relapsed Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) or refractory NHL, and to test the immunity of study subjects after receiving four treatments with rituximab.
The primary objective is to estimate the size of the GR270773 treatment effect on 28-day all-cause mortality for two doses of GR270773 versus placebo in adult subjects with suspected or confirmed Gram-negative severe sepsis. GR270773 will be administered as a three-day continuous intravenous infusion.
This is a long-term, open-label clinical study designed to enable longer-term treatment of patients completing other clinical studies with intramuscular olanzapine depot. Key objectives of the study are to: - Determine how well intramuscular (IM) olanzapine depot works during long-term treatment, - Evaluate the safety and tolerability of IM olanzapine depot during long-term treatment, - Determine the blood levels of IM olanzapine depot in patients during long-term treatment
This study is a randomized Phase 3 study comparing pemetrexed and cisplatin combination to gemcitabine and cisplatin for the treatment of Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NCSLC). Gemcitabine plus cisplatin is currently the standard of care for NSCLC. It is thought that pemetrexed plus cisplatin may be as effective and may have fewer side effects than the standard of care.
This 4 arm study is designed for patients with CHC who have not responded to peginterferon alfa-2b (12KD)/ribavirin combination therapy. In these patients, the effects of lengthening the duration of treatment, as well as including an initial 12-week period of high-dose PEGASYS (360 micrograms sc), are compared with the standard combination therapy of PEGASYS (180 micrograms sc) and ribavirin (1000-1200mg po). The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
This is a Phase 3, prospective, multicenter, open-label, randomized, controlled study to evaluate and compare the efficacy and safety of fludarabine plus alemtuzumab versus fludarabine alone as second-line therapy for patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL). Patients who meet all eligibility criteria and sign the informed consent document may be entered on the study.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and daunorubicin, work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing and die. Monoclonal antibodies, such as gemtuzumab ozogamicin, can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Combining chemotherapy with gemtuzumab ozogamicin may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known whether induction therapy using cytarabine and daunorubicin is more effective with or without gemtuzumab ozogamicin or whether postconsolidation therapy using gemtuzumab ozogamicin is more effective than no additional therapy in treating de novo (first occurrence) acute myeloid leukemia. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is comparing two different regimens of chemotherapy and monoclonal antibody therapy to see how well they work in treating patients with previously untreated de novo acute myeloid leukemia.
This is a multicenter, comparator-controlled, open-label, randomized, two-arm, parallel trial to compare the effect of exenatide twice daily and insulin glargine on glycemic control, as measured by hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c).
